“Our government will introduce UCC in Jharkhand but tribals will be kept out of its ambit. The JMM government is making false propaganda that UCC will impact tribal rights and culture, which is totally baseless as they will be kept out of its ambit,” Shah said in Ranchi.

He said CBI and SIT probes will be launched into“paper leaks” in Jharkhand and culprits will be punished.
The Home Minister said that BJP will bring in a law to take back land from infiltrators in Jharkhand and identify and deport the illegal immigrants.
He claimed that 'Mati, Beti, Roti' (land, daughter and food) were under threat from the illegal immigrants and the BJP would provide security to the indigenous people.
He accused the JMM-led government of patronising infiltrators, while claiming that the tribal population was dwindling in the state and demography was changing fast.
“Hindus are under attack and appeasement is at its peak. Jharkhand is the most corrupt state in the country,” he alleged.
Shah arrived in state capital Ranchi on Saturday night and was scheduled to address three rallies at Ghatshila, Barkatha and Simaria assembly constituencies during the day.
Elections to the 81-member assembly in the state will take place in two phases on November 13 and 20, and votes will be counted on November 23.
